Fig. 1 is a kind of flow chart of method for ultrasonic wave indoor positioning shown according to an exemplary embodiment.
As shown in Figure 1, in S102, the ultrasonic signal and relevant information that supersonic generator is sent out, ultrasound are obtained Wave producer includes:First supersonic generator, the second supersonic generator, third supersonic generator and the 4th ultrasonic wave Generator, ultrasonic signal include:First ultrasonic signal, the second ultrasonic signal, third ultrasonic signal and four surpass Acoustic signals.
As described above, common technology is that multiple supersonic generators are placed on ceiling in ultrasonic wave indoor positioning, The peripherad free space of supersonic generator sends ultrasonic pulse, the object positioned according to certain time interval Body receives the pulse signal that ultrasonic transmission device issues, and chooses three therein in these ultrasonic signals respectively The signal that signal is used as follow-up localization process receives the relevant information of these three ultrasonic signals respectively, can be for example, coding Information, the related contents such as shape information are filled since ultrasonic wave is slow in space transmission speed so being received by comparing three Signal receives the time order and function of signal, can be finally inversed by the specific location of target object, can also be for example, when target object moves It waits, can then depict the movement locus of target object by continual positioning measurement.But the ultrasonic wave of such mode Location technology needs complicated supersonic generator that the ultrasonic signal sent is made to need the coding information for having certain, and It is also possible to be related to intercourse the process of information between ultrasonic signal generator and target object.
In embodiments of the present invention, target object to be positioned, can receive a large amount of ultrasonic signal, and target object is from big Four ultrasound signal receipts are chosen in the ultrasonic signal of amount, are used with making follow-up localization process.It can be for example, strong according to signal Four ultrasonic signals of weak selection, can be for example, by smoothly selecting four ultrasonic signals to weak successively by strong, can also example Such as, the stability of the ultrasonic signal received by Integrated comparative selects the ultrasonic wave letter of four high stabilities successively Number.Choose ultrasonic signal mode can there are many, however do not invent and be not limited.
